Published in cooperation with the Library of Congress, this astounding collection of images by award-winning photographers tells the story of todays Americaand provides an enduring legacy that will inform the way we address our future. On Inauguration Day, 2009, a group of photographers who
were in Washington to document the ceremony began a
conversation that led to the foundation of Facing Change. This
nonprofit collective has a bold to create a new national
portrait of America. Its members include some of the countrys
most celebrated photojournalists. Their vision is inspired by
the Farm Security Administrations project that documented
the Great Depression. Chronicling the challenges of modern
America, these photographs offer compelling stories of people
around the country who are coping with the aftermath of
recent immigration, health care, housing, the war in Iraq,
Katrina, the great recession and profound economic disparity.
The book includes images from the original FSA project as well
as interviews with Library of Congress photography experts,
which together illustrate photojournalisms role in engendering
change in America. The Facing Change photographers are each
introduced in intimate essays that describe their history, work,
and aspirations for the project. The photographs revelations
and their powertell a collective story that continues to unfold,
that affects every one of us, that will last many lifetimes and, it
is hoped, impact some of the lives it has touched.
